1100 O rings

[WDE91]

I recently purchased a Remington 1100 LT 20gauge from Pacificsportingarms.
Someone told me to always keep a couple o rings in the case as the oring is the achilles tendon of 1100s.

Are aftermark ebay sourced o rings ok to use or should strictly only OEM o rings be used?

Those work, there was a thread here a while back about the size and a list of vendors that sold them.

I'll have to see if I can find it.
The OEM rings are $6.50ish which isn't terrible but when aftermarket can be had for a fraction of the cost it seems like a good idea.

Check the links; some 1100's 20G used a different size o-ring than 12G.

I ordered a package of 25 #19 o rings.
If anyone here is needing a couple let me know and I'll send them to you.
